How does math relate to electrons and ion formation?

In order to find the NET nuclear charge from an atom's valence electron to the proton nucleus, you need to do some simple math in order to find the charge.

You would also need to apply math when you need to figure out what the charge on an ion is by either adding or taking away electrons depending on whether it is an anion or cation.

Answer and explanation;

Ions are formed when an atom looses or gains electrons.

-Ionic charges are created when there is an imbalance of protons and electrons on an atom. Since we can not change the number of protons on the nucleus of an atom, a positively charged ion will be created when there are fewer electrons than protons (in other words when an atom looses electron). A negatively charged ion is formed or created when there are more electrons than protons in an atom (when an atom gains electrons).

-When electron are added, you are adding more negative charge and thus, results in the creation of a negative ion (anion), and when electrons are being lost by an atom, one is removing negative charge, resulting in creation of a positive ion (cation).

What will happen if 2.3 L of nitrogen gas is added to a 5 L flask that contains a mixture of carbon monoxide, oxygen, and carbon
stiks02 [169]

Answer:

The equilibrium will remain at the same conditions because there is no effect and difference in the partial pressure which in turn affect the equilibrium state.

Explanation:

  1. As Nitrogen is an inert gas therefore it will not react with either the reactants or products.
  2. Also as the addition is being made by maintaining the volume of flask as constant, thus there will be no difference in the partial pressure of the individual components of the mixture by addition of the Nitrogen gas.
  3. An increase in pressure is observed but the effect is not aiding or retreating the equilibrium conditions
